Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh was forced to sneak out of a Washington D.C. steakhouse this week when he was confronted by pro-abortion protesters.
Kavanaugh was having dinner at Morton's when activists showed up and told the manager to kick him out, two weeks after he was in the majority that overturned Roe v. Wade.
The justice was then forced to leave through the back door, Politico's Playbook reported, as fury continues to spread across the country over the court's recent decisions on gun rights and abortion.
The latest targeting of Kavanaugh also comes less than a month after a 22-year-old man was arrested and charged with attempted murder for traveling from California to his Maryland home and threatening to kill him.
In a statement to Politico, Morton's said: 'Honorable Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh and all of our other patrons at the restaurant were unduly harassed by unruly protestors while eating dinner at our Morton’s restaurant.
'Politics, regardless of your side or views, should not trample the freedom at play of the right to congregate and eat dinner.
'There is a time and place for everything. Disturbing the dinner of all of our customers was an act of selfishness and void of decency.'
ShutDownDC, a protest group, tweeted on Wednesday that Kavanaugh 'snuck out the back with his security detail', and criticized Morton's for 'welcoming a man who so clearly hates women'.
Protesters have turned up at the homes of the justices and singled them out in the weeks since the draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade was leaked.

If people be spiking the police's food then Heaven only knows what they would do to these people's food.
Get take out, order under another name and pay cash.
if he’d gone to Waffle House no one would have recognized him.
And it’ll be complete silence from the Left and their allies, like Liz Cheney. Because leftist threats to democracy don’t really count.
Sad that this is happening in our nation. These protestors should have been arrested.
No one knows what the people in the back could put in their food.
They should have trespassed the protesters and had them arrested if they did not immediately leave.
Declare “ShutDownDC” a domestic terrorist organization and arrest them.
The leftist demonstrators should have been arrested. If the demonstrators violently resisted, they should have been shot.
All the protesters should be serving an automatic 6 months in the county jail for this insurrection.
Federal charges should also apply which could mean 10-20 years in prison.
Well, that moonbat Maxine Waters told everyone to do exactly that. Confront them in restaurants and terrorize them. She’s a disgrace. Remember Biden’s inaugural speech calling for “unity” and tolerance? Has he said a single word about this disgusting behavior?
Looks like they got their way.
P
Any word on whether the “protesters” have been arrested and held without bond for their assault on innocent people?
Not holding my breath.
“were unduly harassed “
So Morton’s would have tolerated “mild” harassment of one of its customers?
“There is a time and place for everything”
No, Morton’s, there’s not.
A-holes.
I always liked Fleming’s and Ruth’s Chris better anyway as far as overpriced, chain steakhouses so.
This insane behavior only makes our numbers go up and Kavanaugh’s spine get stronger.
Not to mention the insane behavior of Dept of Injustice not arresting the lunatics. Only lets us know just how corrupt they are.
The Manager did not call the Police - no arrests
Frankly, I’m surprised the justices are still in the DC area. I thought they would have been secluded and having a nice family vacation for awhile.
Was he able to finish his beer first?
